About Me

My philosophy is grounded in the belief that humans are wired for connection and that we are wounded and healed in relationship. Traditional therapy tends to focus on the wounding, the what-is-wrong in us, our partners, our sex lives, etc. Understanding dysfunction and its root causes is a critical part of growth but insight on its own can only take us so far. My goal is to support people in developing the skills, practices, and mindset that lead to more ethical pleasure, and exceptionally satisfying relationships.

The expertise I have as a coach and mentor comes from my lived experience, and a dedication to understanding myself and others with as much breadth and depth as possible. My formal education and training include Masters’ programs in Socio-Cultural Studies and Counseling Psychology, and a specialized certification in Sexology and Relationship Coaching.

I am committed to meaningful exploration and discovery, focusing on what works and prioritizing possibility over pathology. I am excited by how much we can learn together, how fully we can love ourselves and one another, and the potential this offers for our transformation as individuals, in relationships, and for society as a whole.

How It Works

Many of the people I work with begin their journey with me prompted by sex and relationship challenges, and from there the therapeutic relationship evolves as needed. I have supported and mentored clients through dating, marriage, and the births of children; in crisis and in resolution; in creating strong foundations, tailored relationship structures, and empowered erotic connections.

My experience, education, and training allow me to meet my clients where they are and support them in achieving goals in a variety of areas including but not limited to:

  • Developing confidence

  • Improving communication 

  • Feeling erotically empowered

  • Increasing relationship satisfaction

  • Increasing sexual satisfaction

  • Mastering sexual function

  • Navigating impacts of trauma

  • Navigating addictive patterns/behaviors

My practice approaches emotional, erotic, and relational literacies as meaningful subjects of learning and skill building, and the work centers:

  • Sexuality

    Whether or not sex is the specific topic in any given session, work grounded in sexual literacy acknowledges the whole person. How we are shaped by our history, identity, and context. Self-awareness, self-acceptance, communication, boundaries, access to and enjoyment of pleasure are as important for great sex as they are for every aspect of our lives and relationships.

  • Pleasure

    Feeling good, confident, empowered, free to enjoy pleasure for its own sake, is often challenging in a culture obsessed with the work ethic. An ethic of pleasure balances this by prioritizing exploration of what brings us durable joy; what restores, regenerates, arouses and lights us up. Pleasure is vital to our well being.

  • The Body

    Our original source of knowledge, the body holds intelligence about our emotions, wants, needs, boundaries, wounds and capacity for healing. Embodied mindfulness offers a direct path to increasing self-awareness; changing old habits, patterns, and behaviors; navigating emotion and improving the quality of our relationships.
